What is the benefit of your shade tree?

Trees are important oxygen producers, help provide energy saving shade and the presence of trees positively impacts our psychological well-being.

Some of these benefits of trees are difficult to quantify and measure. Lucky for us the Davey Tree Company has a wonderful online tool that gives you an idea of how much money your shade tree is saving you.

Here is a sample of the benefit of one of the tree seedlings we are giving away on November 14, 2015 at our Arbor Day Celebration.

Visit the Davey National Tree Benefit Calculator input your zip code, type of tree and the diameter of the trunk. When white oak grows that is 12″ in diameter saves $110. So, come by and visit Keep Pearland Beautiful on Nov. 14, 2015 at the Pearland Old Townsite Farmer’s Market and get a seedling. The best time to plant a tree was 25 years ago, the next best time it today!
